I trimmed off one arm as it got damaged while I was repotting it - also it was the one arm that was hanging downward before I decided to repot it. Some articles on line say this likes brighter, direct sunlight - but like most other epiphytic plants, I think this does better with bright shade. I repotted using orchid mix and relocated it to the upstairs lanai (where the other 'bright shade' plants are staged).

Selenicereus testudo
I got the cutting for this cactus as another hitchhiker (maybe 8 months ago???). It has had significant growth since and I went ahead and repotted it today.
